Nothing wrong with well made MIM parts ( other than losing the nice case colors). As others have said, QC is important. I wish the 1911 world would get this thru their heads. When I got a Springfield 1911 there were lots of "Nice gun, remove all the MIM and replace with CNC parts"; my response was why, there is a lifetime warranty and if a part actually breaks they'll fix it so why pay a few hundred or more dollars for parts and labor that add if anything little to reliability.
